1252 CE to 1395 CE

King Premysl Ottokar I (1198-1230) had in 1212 extracted a Golden Bull (a formal edict) from the emperor confirming the royal title for Otakar and his descendants.

The imperial prerogative to ratify each Bohemian king and to appoint the bishop of Prague had been revoked.

The king's successor, Pfemysl Ottokar II (1253-78), marries a German princess, Margaret of Babenberg, and becomes duke of Austria, thereby acquiring upper and lower Austria and part of Styria.

He conquers the rest of Styria, most of Carinthia, and parts of Carniola.

From 1273, however, Habsburg emperor Rudolf begins to reassert imperial authority.

All of Premysl Ottokar's German possessions are lost in 1276, and in 1278 Premysl Ottokar II dies in battle against Rudolf.
